WOOD. •The LORD CHANCELLOR stated, that he had read the answer in this case; as also the letterre lative to one of 111 condittons x and was of opinion, after reading it repeatedly, that whatever should . become of ,the cause ultimately, there were at present strong grounds to suspea that, it was conne&ed with political matter,. with which. the, Court was not entitled to interfere. He carried this the length ,of saying,. that if Sir Mark Wood lnid con veyed the estate to Messeter, he never could have got paid for it in that court ; and he thought that the circumstance of the conveyance, of the bit of laud o6t of-the burgh iii question, instead of being part performance •of the agreement, ,shewed only what the nature of the agreement , was as to the land that was the burgh. This case we noticed before, as-relating to the exchange of lands between the parties upoh certain conditions, one- of which; altliough. not expressly stated, appeared to relate to parliamentary influence, and, so .it appears to have • been viewed by his Lordship: , WILLIA:4S V. MORGAN. T.his , was an application made to the Court; to compel a Mr. Harris, the father* a yoUtig Lady, a Ward of Chancery, to make a . suitable provision to his .daughter, she having eloped with a ,young gen tleman, also a Ward of that Court ; although their joint incomes, at present, were, not above lOW.. a year. It was alledged, that the father being in did knowledge,of their intended elopement, and not taking proper means lii , prevent it, was, therefore, liable to provide for his datighter, although ,Under age, suitable.to hi 4 The LORD CHANcELLOR, this day, said, he, thOught it would be right to refer to the Master; to ascertain whether the parties. had . been_ legally to r 4 ed. Mr. Williams, the gitardian of ,the young man, allowing, in the mean time,,ma.intenance, as from_ the husband. If they were fOund 'to have been legally married, then the 'MaSter should next inquire what maybe the amount of the Lady's for tune, so as to determine what should be done in regard to a settlement to both of them: He was of opinion, that one of the-Clergymen mentioned in this ease had condu&. d himself very properly, in refusing-to marry these parties, on seeing that 'the boy was only seventeen, and the girl but a year or . two older. This was not the case, however, with regard to another ,clergyman, whom he should not name, until he had stated more in his- affidavit.— Although by the At, no.Clergyman.be allowed to' marry w ithout a previous residence having ,been.sa tistatorily established, yet...it ,appeared that _the Clergyman alluded to bad married them the very, day they came into the parish, , a thing which has never been excused, in,regard to a Ward-in Chan-, eery. As he could not go the. length. of commit ting Mr. Harris; he should • reserve all further prO ceedings until the result of'the, Master's inquiry was known. COURT OF KING'S BEM: i-. 1, GUILDHALL Drc .MARGATE PACK.LTS. COVEL V. LAMING. This OS anadion brought by tie Plaintiff, who is the proprietor of the Princ.ess of IVales7 Margate Packet, against the Defendant, the proprietor of the Ifayrd Charlotte .Packet,, for wilfully .running foul of /ES Vessel, and. for doing, him considerable damage.. Mr. GARROW stated the case totheJury, artii he gan . uy reinarking, that in ancient times tile citizens of • 1.;,11don could iake a yo:yal:e to Margate for ha f a-crown, but lately the yroprieturs of the Packets had torined themselves info a company, - and obliged . the public to pay 7s, and lUs. od. for their. sea Trip; acting, he suppOsed; upon the sane principle that the late Mr; .Mitch , ..ner 'did, - namely, that as the 'Margate visitors came out With a determination to spend a certain sun, the sooner their money was gone, the sooner would they return tuti,eir business and their shops.' The Plainiffr, hokever,. did not belong to t hat. company, - and - of con4e4p.iet'.- - e a little jeakrusv and in-will skas telt towards him.. -He had fitted up niS. Packet in a very coo:Mullions. style, and, being a moral man, had provided for thoe who we e not sea sick, and were Well .enotign to 'read, a very mural and entertainingliutary, insoinueh, that the Vessel had been called the &angelical - Hag: 13tit . the treat anrioYance wa, that it sailed faster than any - oi the other Packets, and on the day stated:in the record I waSmaking head against t ie Defendant's Vessel, 'iii . the river Thames, below Gravesend, when, in 'waking a tack, the - Detendant purposely N ran his Vessel blimp againstthe Plaintiff's; and did her considerable damage, throwriog the passengers intd'great coninsion and alit m. The'Plaintiff, there fore, sought reparation by the present action. Witnesses were then called, all of whom, on the pats of the Plaintiff, imputed th&-collision to wit inhiess and malice those for the Defendant said it was purely accidental, and could not have, been avoided. 'rue Jury, however, .found a-werdiel for the Plain tiff—Damages Five Pounds. THE KING V. bIORDECAI. Mr. GARRow stated this to be ansindiatment for wilful and corrupt perjury and that it he made out. the case, which he was assured he Should do by, the Clearest evidence, it Was impos,ible ,to conceive : that any perjury, or any at could be more wicked, except that whiCh was imputed, by the Defendant to other persons. This perjury, he said, arose out of a cause which was tried at iVisi Frius before Chief, Justice MANSFIELD, in thy Court, of Common Pleas,, the title of which was " Sypher v. Alexander ;" which, was an action brought - to recoVei - a•surn of money;' the aiswer to which was, that the Defendmt,' a butcher, was an infant at the time the debt Was Contracted. In order to destroy that defence, the Defendant in this indictment, • together witty another Man' who was about to be tried' upon anotlir indidmdnt irn mediately after this, stated, that he (the present De fendant) in an adjoining hhuse to that of Alekander, overheard a conversation between' Alexander, his un cle,'auckt, and several other persons, stating, '' That they fell upon a plan, and got a person to represent that Allick was at, infant, by which he might pro cure ctedit,:and pay nobody ;", and upon these words the, .perjury was a.,,i„„ e d. :- The, uncle was. c;fLed, .who was supposed to ba one of those who were present when this . conrersa' tic:6 took plate: le had' taken' no notes of wh at passed at the trial, but spoke entirely from his toe: - mory, when he stated these ~ vbrds, and tepresent e( ! that this ,conversation was not held as the Defend=let had sworn it ; btit it turned , out 'that this conversa' lion, which was stated in the indielment .to have taken-place in a house adjoining to that. of Aittxa o. der, was in a room in the same house;-and there' fore -Lord ELLENBOROUGH• was clearly of opinion that the indktwent was not. proved, and that conse• quently the Defendant was entitled to Ilia acquittal —.A ot Guilty.' THE KING V. SAMUEL MORDECAI, was a prosecution on the same ground, kind sor ported only by the. same evidence. This indittmen t slated the Words sworn to by the Defendant to .be, that a plan' was laid, and that th e y' Add gat 3 person to represent that Alexander was an int , i t c i &c. / whereas the evidence was "'that a plan wai 4 11 to , get a person," &c. - This Was also fatal to the 4 gr diament, and therefore the Defendant was Acquill4' COURT OF COMNION PLEAS, Dm , 10.
